Chapter 25: Unwanted
When An Shi looked over with a little dissatisfaction, he leaned over and said to An Shijiao: "Look, Imperial Grandmother, Sister Qin's etiquette is really great, she really respects the Imperial Grandmother in her heart, how can the Imperial Grandmother be willing to let Sister Qin kneel like this?" ”
An Shi squinted, looked back at Qin Jiu, and smiled inexplicably, "What Qing Yatou said is, you get up, you have nothing to do with such a big ceremony, you don't have to make people feel that the mourning family is targeting you." ”
Qin Jiu's eyes tightened, and he only said, "Thank you, Empress Dowager!" ”
She stood up, and the girl in yellow beckoned to her with a smile again, "Sister Qin, you come and sit with me, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I have a lot of things I want to say to you!" ”
Qin Jiu didn't move, An Shi didn't give her to sit, so she naturally couldn't sit down at will.
"Since the girl told you to sit and sit, don't be there."
An Shi waved his hand, and the dissatisfaction and disgust in his words were obvious.
Everyone could see that the An family was dissatisfied with Qin Jiu, and even Concubine Xian and Liu Zhaoyi, two people who could be regarded as elders, had some different colors in their eyes.
But Qin Jiu was just blessed and walked towards the girl in yellow.
The girl in yellow is Wan Qiqing, the eighth princess born to Concubine Li, and her relationship with Qin Jiu in the past can be regarded as good.
It's just that everyone in the Qin family was convicted, and Qin Jiu was demoted to a side concubine, so Concubine Li repeatedly ordered her not to associate with Qin Jiu again, so as not to provoke criticism.
But Wan Qiqing's temperament is also somewhat similar to Qin Jiu, and she is most unaccustomed to seeing those people stepping on high and belittling, even if she knows that her actions may anger the Queen Mother, and the mother concubine will be angry when she knows about it, she still can't help but speak for Qin Jiu.
Qin Jiu naturally understood that he was also grateful for her move, and smiled at her, all his emotions in his eyes.
Although Wan Qiqing said that she asked her to go over to talk to her, but An Shi is here, what can they say?
Qin Jiu just sat quietly, patiently watching the eyes of others, listening to them flatter the An family.
Not long after, Wan Qiqing suddenly said that she was leaving, and pulled her to retire together.
An Shi hindered the presence of everyone, and really didn't embarrass her, and even disgusted her, so that she didn't have to come over to ask for peace if she was okay in the future.
Qin Jiu sneered secretly, she couldn't ask for it.
After staying some distance away from the Anning Palace, Wan Qiqing grabbed Qin Jiu, and there was still an apology in her eyes, "Sister Qin, are you okay these days?" ”
Qin Jiu naturally knew her thoughts, she knew that she was uncomfortable inside, so she retired early, for this, Qin Jiu could only be grateful, she nodded lightly, "I'm fine, thank you princess for your concern." ”
Wan Qiqing bit her lip and looked at her for a few moments, "Sister Qin, why do you and I see each other like this, you still call me Shengqing'er like before?" ”
Qin Jiu was silent, but finally smiled and said, "Qing'er." ”
In the twilight haze, Wan Qiqing's eyes were also a little hazy, revealing some helplessness, "Sister Qin is now alienated from me." But my sister knows that in this palace, even if she is a princess, she is not allowed to have any freedom. As long as Sister Qin understands that Qing'er has always regarded Sister Qin as her sister, it is. In the palace, if my sister has any difficulties, she can ask someone to come to me at any time, as long as I can help, I will definitely help my sister. ”
Qin Jiu's eyes moved, and he sighed before he said in a low voice, "I understand it, and I won't be estranged from you, but it's because no one in this palace is free, so I don't want you to be too close to me, I understand your intentions, and you also understand my intentions." ”
Wan Qiqing's eyes were dark, she looked at Qin Jiu, and her eyes finally lit up.
